In a major security breach on the 22nd anniversary of Parliament terror attack, two intruders jumped into the Lok Sabha chamber from the public gallery during Zero Hour and released yellow gas from canisters and shouted slogans before being overpowered by MPs.
Congress MP Gurjeet Singh Aujla, who caught hold of the two men who jumped down the visitors’ gallery into the House, narrated the incident.
‘He had something in his hand which was emitting yellow-coloured smoke. I snatched it away and continued throwing it outside…This is a major security breach…,” Aujla said.
